#ambessa and mel played incredibly important roles in those three episodes but no one has talkes about it

I want more people to talk about Ambessa’s involvement in the events leading up to episode three, especially since I do believe it will become a major plot point in the rest of the season.

Because, it’s revealed that she’s pulling what a lot of more war oriented ideologies do, where she takes peoples’ fear, grief, and anger and eggs it on. Encourages those emotions, sets up situations to worsen them, and looks to those now terrified and goes “You want to do something about this fear and anger, right? You need to protect yourself. You need to avenge those that were slaughtered.” She’s encouraging war by pulling just the right strings for people to justify the violence in their own minds.

She’s guiding them down a pipeline that she herself has already fallen down. And her daughter is the only person that can see that because she’s the only person that knows to listen and look for it.
